Efficient and Effective Justice Activity
Despite its rich legal and judicial traditions and highly experienced professionals in the justice sector, Sri Lanka faces delayed justice delivery, insufficient communication, lack of human resources, and limited training opportunities for professional development. These challenges have undermined public confidence in the justice system and fueled the government’s desire to improve it and align it with international best practices.
A well-functioning justice system is key to protecting individual rights and ensuring peace in society by upholding the of rule of law. The USAID Efficient and Effective Justice Activity introduces and reinforces features that allow for swift justice delivery, transparency, and effective training to meet international standards for the rule of law and justice.
By creating a more effective justice system, the activity will improve livelihoods and foster a more suitable environment for economic growth.
